HFF Announces $33.8M Denver Apartment Community Financing

Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced the $38.5 million sale of Ranch at Bear Creek, a 201-unit apartment community in Lakewood. The HFF team marketed the asset exclusively on behalf of the seller, Aukum Group, and procured the buyer, Castle Lanterra Properties. The HFF investment advisory team representing the seller included managing director Jordan Robbins and directors Jeff Haag and Anna Stevens.

Located at 3324 South Field Street, the property features a unique blend of both standard flat-style units along with two- and three-bedroom, two-story townhomes. Originally constructed in 1973, Ranch at Bear Creek has recently undergone improvements including an updated pool area, new outdoor lounge with fire pit, newly built fitness center, full renovation of the existing clubhouse and upgrades to 63 percent of the residential units.

“Half of the Ranch at Bear Creek’s unit count consists of large townhome units, which distinguishes it from other communities in the area. This unique feature combined with very limited current and future apartment development in the submarket generated a great deal of interest from a large investor pool,” Robbins noted.

In addition to community amenities, residents also have access to an abundance of recreational amenities in the surrounding area such as Bear Creek Trail, Bear Creek Lake Regional Park, Chatfield State Park, and Red Rocks Park and Amphitheatre, as well as access to four top-rated golf courses within a two-mile radius.

Pinnacle Arranges Sale of Single Tenant Auto Parts Property

Pinnacle Real Estate Advisors announced the sale of a single tenant net leased Advance Auto Parts property, located at 1410 Main Street in Longmont, for $2,074,000. Rob Edwards and Zach Wright of The Edwards | Ethington Team represented the seller in the transaction, a Colorado-based family. The purchaser was a private California-based investor in a 1031 exchange.

“The competitive landscape for single-tenant properties in Colorado allowed the seller to choose from numerous comparable offers ultimately selecting a full-price offer with a 17-day transaction timeline,” said Principal Edwards.

The Edwards | Ethington Team successfully assisted the seller in securing an early five-year lease extension. The corporately guaranteed lease has over eight years remaining and features minimal landlord responsibilities.

“As evidenced by the high level of activity and numerous offers, there is a significant amount of capital chasing single tenant assets located in Colorado. The market has created an environment which remains very favorable to sellers looking to take advantage of near historic cap rates” added Associate Advisor Wright.
